Dead Space 3 topped the software chart, but in a quiet month it's difficult to assess whether the game can be classed a success for the EA. Black Ops 2 was shunted down a place to No.2, followed by Crysis 3 at No.3. Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is new at No.5 and Aliens: Colonial Marines managed to place at No.6.

Nintendo added that Fire Emblem: Awakening sold 117,000 at retail – not enough to make the Top 10 – but managed a further 63,000 units digitally.

Ah right, I was thinking of... LEGO Marvel Super Heroes I think. Not a LEGO fanatic, so not bothered with that game, though I was tempted to buy one for playing Wii games and for Monster Hunter - but since it's gonna be on the 3DS as well...

I don't know. In the past gens you KNOW there will be a ton of unique and system exclusive titles coming post launch. Like I said however nowadays the bulk of the games are multi-platform which makes buying a game-only console almost kinda silly.

I think it's worth it to me, but I'm biased in the end. I'm really like NSMBU and can't wait for Lego City Undercover. Nintendo land is good too. I think it really is worth waiting at least until E3. Nintendo know their down, but they are certainly NOT out. It's still the first year and it still can turn around, like with the 3DS and with the Vita in Japan now.

Launch periods/ era's for consoles are never good, and whilst the Nextbox and PS4 ones may not be as bad, they still will have a baren era of no games to begin with.

Lego City is gonna be multi-platform though I thought. Problem with these consoles is that 97.5372% of the games are available on the other platforms, giving gamers a lot less incentive to buy them. I'm tempted by the U, but... meh, probably not gonna happen.
